Hi,

Is there someone who already test SC101 NBD code on a Mac?

I'm a newbie in Linux. So any help to make it work on Mac Leopard will
be helpful.

Cheers,
Sebastien

Hi Sebastien,

the NBD interface only exists on linux.

I do have a port which will work on FreeBSD via the ggate interface,
and I am working on a native OSX driver.

the OSX driver crashes pretty early at the moment though, it's not really ready.

I might get some time to look at it over christmas.

Hi lain

I am in a similar situation to Sebastien, it would be great if you get
it working with an OSX driver.

I found this site (http://www.newtdata.com/) that is selling some SW
that claims is compatible with the Mac. They are asking $69 for the
product.

Would love to hear if you had time over xmas / New Yr to look into it
further.

Cheers
Tony

I wasn't aware that existed, how interesting, thanks for the link!

Yes I worked on it over christmas and am quite happy with the results.

I should be able to make a reasonable release in the next few days and
I'll let you know when I do.
